Yachtport SA is a purpose designed and built marine lift and yacht maintenance facility situated in the Port of Saldanha, 60 nautical miles northwest of Cape Town. Additional technical and logistical support is also provided in the V&A Waterfront.
With the growth of the local yacht export market and limited facilities available to the yacht industry, Yachtport SA was established in 2010, in South Africa’s largest natural deepwater port, providing a marina and fully equipped boat yard with the only dedicated indoor yacht maintenance and repair workshop in Southern Africa. Since its establishment, Yachtport SA has proudly serviced over 1500 vessels.
This world-class facility with its superior boat handling equipment and infrastructure is designed to provide much needed launching, repair and mooring opportunities for the luxury yacht industry in the Western Cape of South Africa.
The modern Travelift can lift safely up to 100-tons while the extra wide loading dock is 10.0m wide wall-to-wall. This accommodates monohulls and catamarans of 25-30m length overall typically.
Our adjacent quayside can be used with Mobile cranes to lift wider, longer or heavier vessels if required.
